No one except organisation people knew Mr Modi before he became CM. Keshubapa, Shankarsinh Bapu, Kashiram were some faces of BJP. Kutch earthquake mismanagement gave opportunity to Mr Modi.
Mr Modi attracted industry by calling industrialist personally, spent on roads, urban infrastructure projects, water pipeline projects, 24 hrs electricity, Garib Kalyan mela for DBT, subsidised housing, promoted tourism, no riots after 2002, managed state finance. He defeated earthquake, drought, inflation, unemployment by all these initiatives. Land & property prices jumped multifold bringing benefits to people. Last downturn saw beautiful investment in “Mahatma Mandir”, GIFT city & roads.
Loan waiver for farmers,MANAREGA & Loan restructuring helped UPA in that decade temporarily.
2020-2030, There will be healthy competition among opposition CMs, Amit Shah Ji, & Yogi Ji in this decade.
Modi Ji won three elections before going for PM position. Who can do same? They all have all solutions from what Modi Ji did in 2000-2010 decade.
Infrastructure spending by Central-State Govt and Central-State PSUs should be the first step. Railways, AAI, Defence should prepone Infrastructure spending & procurement. Let’s see who takes lead.
